I don't count aces that come when I'm "unloading my bag". Aces that count are ones that result in you writing a 1 on a scorecard....period. Practice aces are for those that need something to feel good about.

I aced #2 out there last summer on my lunch break. My first ace to the date, playing for about a year at that point. The park had only been open a short time. A city employee watering around the fenced area witnessed it. He even shut off his compressor for me to throw (without me asking), gave me a high five. It made my day. I think they still count as long as it comes from the tee, its your first throw on that hole its an ace. Who gives s*it what park your in.
